Billy is absol the best striper fishermen I ever had the pleasure of fishing with. Seems like yesterday,but it was over 22 yrs ago when I first met & fished with him. If you ever get a chance to catch one of his seminars, do it. He is quite an impressive fellow & if anyone has a shot at the next world record ,hes definitely near the top of the list. The guy is as hardcore as it gets. |

I agree after reading the book he will probably be the man. I love the story of the 4 fish over 50 lbs., 2 were 58 lbs, off a bridge in the middle of the nite in Nov. Hardcore is an understatement. |

Reading the Water by Bob Post. I've read every striper book there is and this is the best. IMO

Two great books I just finished...neither is about fishing.
"The New American Militarisim : How Americans Are Seduced by War" - Andrew Bacevich
A West Point grad, BU historian and Vietnam Vet studies how the US perception of war has dramatically changed (often for the worse) since the Vietnam War. Extremely well documented and brutally honest, this book places the Bush doctrine and current events into naked context. Not a partisan book, everyone should read this.
"One Bullet Away : The Making of a Marine Officer" - Nathaniel Fick
Amazing first person account of what it takes to become a Recon Marine and what combat in Afghanistan and Iraq was really like. To be honest, every Marine I've ever known was a bit wacky and now I understand why  Next time I'm freezing my ass off on a rock, I'll just think of how easy life really is.
I'm going to make my stepson read this for sure.

That book wouldn't be any better if it played music when you opened it...  |
He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
